yconic is the place where you can give and get the help you need for your life as a student. To help keep our community an enjoyable, helpful and safe place for all members, please adhere to the following guidelines.

1. Be nice to people. It's okay to provide constructive criticism, but there is no need to insult other members. For example, "X major is over-saturated right now. You might have trouble finding a job" is fine. "Your major is dumb. Have fun working in fast food," is not helpful nor appropriate.

2. Ask actual questions. If you're looking for help with something, titling a thread "HELP, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO" isn't going to appeal to the members that may be best suited to help you. Be specific and title your post with relevant information.

3. Don't abuse the anonymous feature by pretending to be multiple people. Surprise, surprise, we know who posts what :)

4. Please only tag relevant interests when you create a new thread. Adding unrelated interests is unlikely to get you the help you're looking for and can frustrate other members.

5. Avoid spamming. This includes replying to your own thread for the sole purpose of moving it up the discussion feed.

Summer

... is finally here. I was just at the beach, where it was a balmy 33 degrees, 41 degrees after humidity. UV rating was 9, so my pasty white skin will definitely be getting a burn. Love it! So glad we're just at the beginning of it too. I never want to see winter again.

@EastSideBoyz wroteSummer means a hella lotta work for me :(
<need to work so I can pay off future uni expenses....
but I hope its not too hot this summer as I hate the humidity! i get uncomfortable

I've made a little pact with my self to not complain about the heat this summer. Complaining doesn't help anything and is only annoying to everyone in earshot. So far I haven't complained at all but its yet to get over 30 degrees Celsius. I think I can do it though.

Try running a triathlon in it.

Yeah, I don't think I'd be too concerned about the heat; I'd be more concerned about how I would run in the water and run on the bike.

But, yeah, I wouldn't want to be doing anything too physical. Just too hot. Lying on the beach, on the other hand, was paradise.

Just over 30 degrees is pretty soft...no offence. Try the Sahara Desert for size if you think this is hot. Just stay hydrated and you'll be good to go.

Depends if it's 30 degrees before humidity or 30 degrees after humidity. 30 degrees after humidity, I think, is perfect. 30 degrees before humidity can be pretty harsh, depending on the humidity level.

Yeah, but over a sustained period the weather tends to mellow out. The best solution is to stay indoors for that duration, I guess, if it becomes too bothersome.

It looks like it's gunna be another hot and humid summer in southern Ontario. Thankfully I landed an awesome summer job in Nunavut that starts in a month so I get to escape the heat for a while. Can't wait to go up north!!!!

Where I live it has never gone above 40 degrees WITH humidity. I have never been anywhere hotter, so the heat I experience is sometimes alot for me to handle. I have no doubt the Sahara desert is hotter.

But anyways, its not really about the heat, its more about accomplishing the goal I set.
